OMYA Restless Heart: YAMDI Retreat
Saint Augustine wrote that “our heart is restless until it rests in the Lord.” Do you experience restlessness in your life? Do you feel that God has made you for something more? Come and experience the Good News during our YAMDI retreat and see what the Lord is inviting you to!
The “Restless Heart YAMDI Kerygma Retreat” will take place from February 27th (Friday) to March 1st (Sunday)at Mother Boniface Spirituality Center (3501 Solly Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19136) and is open to any young adults (18-39 years old).
The leaders and speakers of this retreat will be: Fr. Stephen DeLacy, Fr. Timothy Tarnacki, Andrea Hall, Emily Wilson, Deacon Jaime Gandara and more!
This retreat is part of the OMYA’s Young Adult Missionary Disciple Initiative (YAMDI) formation program. However, you can just sign up for the retreat if you would prefer to wait to commit to the full formation program.
YAMDI leads young adults to encounter the love of Christ in a more profound way and to share this love with others. This formation program also responds to Archbishop Nelson Perez’s call to “create a culture of missionary disciples in the Church of Philadelphia.” It empowers young adults to discover and follow their call as missionary disciples in the Church and take initiative in their communities!
